Case Study: Ferguson achieves enterprise-scale digital signage reliability with Four Winds Interactive

Ferguson’s 1,000 Endpoint Digital Signage Network

Ferguson, a major wholesale supplier with 1,400 locations and 27,000 associates, needed a more reliable enterprise communications network after its legacy digital signage system struggled with about 75% uptime and made localized content hard to manage. The company also wanted better scheduling, simpler content management across 1,000 endpoints, and the ability to monetize screens through vendor ad space. Ferguson chose Four Winds Interactive, using its enterprise digital signage platform to replace the old system.

Four Winds Interactive implemented Poppulo Harmony Signage Cloud, paired with cost-effective BrightSign players and ongoing managed services, to improve uptime, streamline scheduling, and support both global and local messaging. The result was a more scalable network with over $300 saved per endpoint, significantly better reliability, and the flexibility to expand into new locations and use cases while delivering more personalized content and a new revenue opportunity.
